today. first detonated a cars bomb then stormed the compound all while the parliament was in session. fending off the fighters killing all six. the international community including the u.s. immediately condemned the attack. the u.n. called it an atoronto to humanity. jennifer glasse has the latest from kabul. >> the parliamentary session was just getting underway when this happened. there is confusion. it's just an electrical problem says the speaker as mps flee from the chamber but it was a taliban car bomb going off leaving others in flames. firing on the entrance to the parliament.

>> today there were two specific agendas. the minister of defense was also in the parliament at this time and wanted to come to the session when the explosion happened. >> police and special forces quickly arrived to fight the attackers as people looked on. >> translator: the car bomb came into the street south of the parliament next to the ministry of trade and debt fated. when the car fate -- and he debt necessitated. detonated. >> taliban attacks are not limited to the capital. in kunduz, the taliban now controls two districts. thousands of taliban fighters are involved and the government

has sent in more than 7,000 soldiers and police. tens of thousands of civilians have been displaced in nearly two months of fighting in kunduz i.t. has launched assaults all over afghanistan heavy weapons and logistical support it had last year. scheduled to introduce its nominee for defense minister. jennifer glasse al jazeera kabul. >> joining us is captain matt del err. zeller a fellow at the trueman national center. always good to have you matt. >> thanks for having me. >> cimg people atkilling people at hotels how

badly is the security? >> very poor. kabul was referred to as ka kabubble. problems weren't mefg manifesting themselves in kabul . it shows all the appearances they want to have. for all intends and purposes they are winning in afghanistan. that's why they won't negotiate with afghan government. >> this is only about the distance that you are from me in washington here the distance between d.c. and new york. we're not talking about very far from the capital. what does this say about the afghan security forces and their

ability to keepfully kind of control there especially if american troops end up leaving? >> it says a great deal. by my estimate, the afghan security forces are currently being degraded to such an extent that they will not be able to conduct combat operations amongst the taliban in a couple of years. they can't replace troops fast enough in order to get the taliban in check. let's remember. for every fighter that the afghan military currently loses that was trained by the u.s., they are replacing them with someone that has likely not received nor will ever receive rnlconcentrated u.s. training. better than nothing is not going to be enough to text the taliban's advance and if they

can continue -- >> if the president is still talking about pulling everybody out, pulling american troops the ones that are left out could we see a situation like what we saw in iraq where you know you have the rise of the -- you know the taliban coming back in this case or evenly i.s.i.l. which seems to be getting more and more involved in afghanistan as well. >> you know the interesting thing is i don't think daesh really has a place to stand in afghanistan yet. now that's not saying that if they can start conducting their own attacks and winning over low level fighters that i.s.i.l. can make a significant inroad into afghanistan. but since 2009 their pr is all about we're winning we're winning we are winning. to demonstrate that level of commitment to their strategy which was this whole time, so long as they can out-bleed us

they can outlast us, and win. the afghan government couldn't defend its own parliament as they were trying to nominate that are secretary of defense. this seems like an intelligence problem. this wasn't a random day at parliament they chose. they were able to breach the grounds of a building that as of three years ago was considered to be an impenetrable fortress. >> we just heard about the taliban offering a hot line for people who want to defect from the afghan government. so it really sounds on a lot of differently levels they are getting more confident. >> they are getting more confident and they have every right to be. the stark really is we probably don't know what's going on in the rural country side. westerners simply don't go there anymore. we don't have the assets to monitor. the afghans were always more

effective on the country side. you essentially see the afghan people over to the enemy and that is what they're doing. they are recreating the strategy that the mujahideen did in the 1970s. and unfortunately they are right. they have outlasted our commitment to their country. first and foremost the afghans to get them here to america as we promised we would do should this happen but then after that there are millions of afghans who if they didn't you know outright fight with us, they haven't joined the taliban. they are also going to suffer. we're looking at a potential you know early '90s, post-soviet war level conflict coming at afghanistan and it is truly frightening. >> let's hope the tide can be turned and quickly. matt zeller always nice to have you with us.

thanks. ali arni al harzi the target of the attack has died. the i.s.i.l. commander is believed to have been present when the u.s. mission in benghazi was attacked, four u.s. died including ambassador chris stephens. i.s.i.l. had held a base for nearly a year, kurdish ypg forces are now within four miles of i.s.i.l.'s center of power in syria. u.s. air strikes are backing up their efforts and those of the free syrian army. the u.s. says it will contribute special operations force he intelligence and other military resources, to deter any future military action by russia in the baltic states and europe.

ashton carter says the u.s. is not seeking another cold war or hot war with russia but it is willing and ready to help defend its nato allies. eu foreign ministers have extended sanctions on russia. russia has in turn extended food imports for another six months. >> this is the list of people subject to sanctions in the united kingdom. some are russian government ministers accused of involvement in ukraine and the east of the country. the aim is to freeze any assets they might have in london yet how this would affect someone like for example the education minister of the donetsk people's republic is hard to see. people like this corporate lawyer who have had a long look at how sanction he were enforced

here, says it was meant to be a warning shot. >> i think the point that president obama said it several times is to change the calculus, to make the rationale within russia consider the economic cost will be outweighed by whatever benefits could be seen by either destabilizing ukraine. potentially gaining two new provinces. >> still, the year is set to see record involvement and london's banking system is useful for russians who want to move their cash through owner offshore.

gazprom the sort of thing that would really hurt moscow. it was clear that when the government started constructing its essential program that really big russian money was not going to be affected. that seems partly to have been designed to protect brich -- british involvement the really big question is whether the right people the most important people have actually been targeted by these sanction he. the u.s. has taken a -- sanctions. murder of the lawyer sergei magnitski. >> you start out with what i call the herding cat problem which is you just have too many voices. then you add onto that the corruption problem and i should say the corruption problem being that there are certain people in europe both in the european parliament and in different european governments that are on the payroll of russia.

>> in recent months france and germany have suggested more sanctions might worsen the collapse in relations with russia leaving the u.k. as the supposed hawk. but given the easy way russian money washes through city of london european sanctions don't look particularly threatening. lawrence lee, al jazeera london. >> today marks the 70th anniversary of the nazi invasion of russia. putin say russians have a duty to be patriotic. president petro poroshenko also laid a wreath in memory of victims. 3 million ukrainians were called during the fight against the nazis. emergency talks took place today in prustles between brussels between greece and it's european contractors.

on creditors -- creditors. some want to remain part of the euro zone while others reject that if it involves more austerity measures. john siropolous was with the straightors earlier there afternoon. >> greeks are becoming more frustrate. the country's financial aid program ends at the end of the month. threatened to default on a $1.8 billion bond to the international monetary fund if it doesn't have a deal. these people come mainly from the private sector. they do not want to see more taxes or austerity in public spending but today that is what they have heard the government may have capitulated to. growth to renewed recession and this time it's not been triggered by austerity but

political uncertainty that has led to a collapse in investment and consumer demand. >> john siropolous in athens thanks. europe's financing ministers have apparently welcomed the latest proposals by greece. >> the perfect way to start the day. be alexis tsipras had a lot to grin over. to get his country the next chunk of bailout catch it desperately needs but the smiles were not to last. first his finance minister turned up 45 minutes late, then the finance ministers said they could not accept because they had not been given enough time to understand them. >> this is also an opportunity to get this deal this week and that is what we will work for.

>> reporter: two people at that press conference, christine lagarde stayed behind the the boss of the international monetary fund. the last meeting on thursday it descend to something more heated. she kept out of sight though officials were keen to play down her no-show. as evening arrived the cameras were waiting and while they catch up over dinner they won't be able to toast any lasting deal. this is about showing solidarity. being slightly you bummish. convincing the world the euro zone is strong. thus weighting speculators for running out of greece. >> phil lavelle in brussels. euro zone finance ministers will meet again on wednesday to reach a final deal on greece.

israelis and palestinians last war on gaza, why both sides are rejecting the results of a study. armed guards using hand grenades to attack officers.

>> the u.n. released a report today that says war crimes may have occurred in last year's gaza strip conflict. the report cites violations on both sides. in today's in context segment james bays looks and what happens next. >> reporter: should there be war crimes charges following last summer's gaza war? that's a key question after the release of a report, over a conflict that killed well over 2,000 people. the panel's findings criticize

palestinian armed groups for extra-jirnl executions for those claimed to be collaborators but there was particularly strong condemnation of israel's in indiscriminant bombings. >> homes were struck in the middle of the night or as they were gathering for if t rarvetioniftar.these had particularly distinct consequences for children, prl approximately 550 children dyed. >> more consequences against israel than against syria north korea and iran combined.

it urges all fair minded observers to view this as biased. >> fatal mistake that all the time they stride to be balanced and they tried to make kind of equality between the killers and the victims. this is something not accepted. >> reporter: this latest report comes just two months after another internal report that said israel was responsible for attacks on seven u.n. buildings. the timing of all of this is significant. earlier this year, palestine became a member of the international criminal court. chief prosecutor fatu ben suta has already launched what's called a preliminary investigation to decide whether to launch a formal investigation. even more evidence to sift through, because palestinian are

expected to hand over a batch of documents to the hague. >> joining us is ellie jacobs, a partner with the treuzman truman organization. >> thank you for telling me. >> neftali bennett the education minister says this report has blood on its hand. will it get rejected out of hand. >> first of all it will not be rejected out of hand. i think the u.n. made a big mistake about not having a military officer as part of the commission looking into it. it was hard to figure out what was hatching in war without having anyone who has been in war. >> that is one that the report focuses on, war like activities, takes issue with the precision precaution and proportionality

of the israeli response, how some of the bombings ended up wiping out whole neighborhoods and killing in the end hundreds of civilians including over 500 children. >> right. any civilian death is obviously remarkably tragic. what the israeli military has done for the last 40 or 50 years is they really try limit it. if you think about the asymmetry between gaza hamas's power and israel's military power israel could very easily wipe gaza off the map. while tragic, it is remarkable they were able to be that precise. hamas was launching rockets from deep inside that dense city. >> but again -- density.

>> but somehow ending up hitting u.n. buildings and that too many civilians were killed in this effort. so do you think israel will make any changes based on this report? >> i think from friends of mine who serve in the idf friends of mine who work in the israeli government friends who live in israel, there are efforts to limit those doubts. >> when you see the angry response from the israeli government do you think -- how seriously will they take that process? >> they will take it seriously no doubt. the age are is more at the u.n he was fawblg factually correct. israel does take these diplomatic digs very seriously. whether or not they do it externally doesn't really matter, but what's going on internally is they do pay attention, this does matter to

them. >> and what about the palestinian side? the report found that palestinian armed groups were responsible for war crimes by lobbing rockets into israel, and also they criticized the palestinian side for using weapons from a densely populated area. but again we heard the hamas representative rejecting the report as well. do you think there will be any progress from that side? >> as far as what they may do going forward, it is important what bill clinton said when this was all going on during 2014, he essentially said, hamas knew what they were doing from gaza. so that israel would be consolidated and israel would be singled out and israel would look bad on tv and for pr purposes. this is part of hamas's whole goal is to delegitimize israel

and make israel look bad in the public eye. >> now the palestinian authority is part of the icc and we'll see whether there is any movement on this investigation into war crimes. it's an important certainly controversial report, ellie jacobs good to have you with us. thanks. >> major controversy over the confederate battle flag, why officials say the flag should come down from the state capitol and frank toff, high level meetings get underway.

underway. >> welcome back to al jazeera america. i'm antonio mora. coming up in this half hour of international news the key issues of contention between the u.s. and china as the two countries prepare for strategic

talks.but first, south carolina could be ready to take a huge stepstep towards healing old wounds. governor nikki haley and other officials call for the confederate flag to be removed from the state capital. in the wake of a shooting at a charleston church where nine african americans were killed. del walters an important day in history. >> it's been an incredible, check that, dramatic 24 hours. a gunman went into the church behind me opened fire and killed nine people inside including the church pastor. yesterday the mood was somber as they opened the doors for the church at that time, some say that in itself was a modern day miracle and they did so without that pastor. it is a mood of celebration it followed news that the state's

governor nikki haley would take a step towards eliminating the state's past. >> south carolina came together in a bipartisan way to remove the confederate flag from the capital dome. without ill will we say it's time to move the flag from the capital grounds. >> reporter: antonio, tonight as they have for the last five days they gather to pray they gather to mourn and tonight they gather to celebrate. that is the voice of a young lady sing "amazing grace." there were two officers stationed on that balcony behind me. they are gone, that's an indication that south carolina can get back to normal if there can be anything like that these days antonio. >> we have often seen unity

among politicians after tragedy then nothing. there is a movement by the state legislature to take that flag down. is the expectation that that barrier will be overcome? >> in fact it's not an expectation. it is turning into a religious belief. it will take a two-thirds vote of both houses of the legislature to do so. but when the governor announced she thought they should, there was thunderous applause. norvel goss, if there's been anything in the state these days it is that that should happen. there is absolutely no link between charleston massacre and the confederate flag, but the battle lients have been lines have been drawn. antonioantonio.

>> thank you del. south china sea was a show of strength that appeared to be aimed at beijing. both claim ownership of the spratley islands. an american and chinese delegation met for candid and to the point talks. al jazeera roz rosalyn jordan looks at other issues that are on the agenda. >> when u.s. secretary of defense ash carter met with the chinese foreign minister the two promised to work on certain missions, but to restrict air and sea travel in what is recognized as international territory in the south china sea. the americans also expressed concern at china's land

reclamation project in the spratley islands. it is a project beijing insists it has to do. >> as the biggest economy in asia and the biggest country in the south china sea china has responsibility to provide better security service. >> reporter: even as beijing says it's about to finish that project the obama administration is calling it a bad idea. >> nothing has changed about our view of these destabilizing activities there in the south china sea. >> reporter: china's efforts to expand its military activities in the south china sea are certain to dominate the talks. but political ambitions are also on the agenda and economists say those too are set to generate conversation. beijing supported hackers have been blamed for recent attacks on u.s. government servers. restrictions on doing business

in china and washington still accuses beijing of manipulating the yuan. the equal political and military power if it wants an improved relationship . >> china's creating the facts in terms of the institutions it's setting up the role that it's taking on and in a way that means that a lot of these conversations now have to be done effectively at something close to this level and the tone of them increasingly reflects that. >> reporter: the challenge is to ensure that beijing takes these issues serials without losing access and influence of its own. rosalyn jordan, al jazeera the state department. >> south korea's foreign minister was in tokyo today joij shinzo abe abe said he

hoped to have improve relations at odds over south korea's mistreatment of sex slaves during the war. south korea has been preoccupied containing the mers outbreak. 23 out of 175 confirmed cases to date. ftc a cord in indonesia has rejected the last appeal for a frenchman who has been sentenced to death. serge atalui was arrested ten years ago. france has mounted strong opposition to his sentence but indonesia says it still plans to execute him. taish crime rate getting worse. 16,000 homicides in venezuela and recent hand grenade attacks on police seem to indicate an

escalation of violence. vehenia lopez reports. >> cesar villas was killed by gangsters. the 35-year-old was more than 100 police officers who in venezuela have become the recent target of crime in 2015 alone. >> translator: i always prayed to my god to protect him my son would say relax he knew how to take care of himself. >> reporter: he was ambushed by thugs who stole his weapon. his death leaves a grieving family and the fear amongst his fellow officers that they might be next. in the evening a tour of duty makes that obvious. >> they know we carry guns.

>> according to criminologists killing police officers have been on the rise since 2012 thanks about part because local communities have little respect for a force that can be abusive and corrupt. venezuela is one of the most dangerous countries in the world yet policemen here often understaffed and outgunned by criminals. a recent government ban on weapons have also contributed ironically to a rise in crime. >> we have become victims because we are armed. in the country there's no sale on manufacturing of guns to the general public because criminals don't have access to weapons they kill officers but in addition to this it's with become a symbol of status. >> recent incidents where attacking police, no end in sight. vehenia lopez al jazeera venezuela. >> our coverage of that crisis will continue tomorrow night

1990s. cuba started to soften its stance. >> i would be proud to see an improvement in the gay community behavior in every way. >> reporter: at his job in old havana artist juan molinas. >> thanks to movies and documentaries that people have seen things have developed in the world and people are seeing us in a different view of life. the determination and sexuality of a gay person. >> havana based musician, a gay person. >> i have been very surprised lately at how organized everything is. >> reporter: his provocative retelling of a classic cuban play casa viefjella.

>> because i am gay and i have friends who are gay and i have seen a lot of pain, i have seen a lot of situations we are seen as repulsive. that is not acceptable. so it's better to put it in a movie. >> reporter: activists say there is still a lot of way to go. there is no protection in other sectors of society such as housing and education. and same sex marriage as well as civil unions remain illegal. >> translator: there will have to be a lot of knowledge cultural social and visual to be able to accept something. we are still very behind in that aspect. >> reporter: as relations thaw between the u.s. and cuba, juan carlos and others are optimistic, this could lead to a climate of attorneys and

acceptance. ash-har quraishi, havana. three years in prison in 1970s for trying oleave the island. very good to have you with us. >> thank you antonio. >> you were in cuba for the worst of the repression against members of the lgbt community concentration camps that later were somewhat softened but still labor camps for many years. >> 1967, there were then because of the scandal of international community they were disclosed. and there was a period in which basically a little freedom after that. then comes the dark period in which they call the kincanio gris in which they sent all the writers you know, that were homosexuals home basically and send them a check and don't allow them to work in any public.

>> so the repression went on for years. forced to undergo aversion therapy. >> at the beginning of the aids crisis they were sending gays into quarantine. >> what they called sanitorios. once the aids crisis hits they put them in these -- it was a euphemism they were put in camps. >> there was a group of writers and artists that came to the united states. and i think we start up, you know, talking about the situation in cuba, how difficult it was for gays. and i think that that in some way forced them to change the policy. >> much of the responsibility does lie on fidel castro's shoulders. >> any plays in latin america has been a he real ma machismo against gays but he was the

first president to publicly condemn homosexuals. >> but then things began improving in the 1990s. >> correct. >> you think that was from international pressure? >> must be. there were movies written about it articles, books published that forced them to change. >> recently there has been a lot more progress. has that because of raul's daughter mariella who took on the cause? >> it helps to have somebody in the family, in the castro family, take task to defend them. defend them as long as they are with the revolution. >> while there has been this liberalization recently there's still no civil unions, there's no same sex marriage and there are still raids occasionally on gay bars and -- >> they want to go by the law

the law still exists in which public ostentation is a crime. it will be sent to prison to three to nine years. i mean this is not being used now but the law is there. it hasn't been changed. >> how do you feel about going back to cuba, would you go back? >> i -- i have perhaps too much bad memories to risk my -- the rest of my life in having nightmares if i go there and the police ask me for i.d.s or take me into questioning for some reason or another. and -- but i think it's a good thing at the end that mariella has helped them. and i wouldn't participate but i think it's a better place for the gays than it was 20 years ago, i would say. it's a reality. i mean, i don't know for how long.
